Is there a way to make the 2003 pathfinder ride a little smoother? This SUV rides like a log wagon. Any suggestions?

Struts and shocks are new. Also all new rear stabilizers trailing arms. It feels like the rear wheels are bottoming out when we hit a fair size bump.

Stick a ball of chewed up bubble gum on top of the bump stop.
Drive over a fair sized bump and then check to see if the bubble gum was flattened..

I will do that, thanks for the suggestion.

If it is bottoming out, do you think air bags would do any good?
